Abstract: The aperture setting apparatus for the illumination system of a film telecine scanner comprises a housing containing a continuous, single piece, elongated band (233) having first and second centrally disposed light obstructing or solid band sections (235,237) formed in parallel planes with respect to one another and first and second cut-out band sections separating the first and second light obstructing band sections and forming end loops (239₁,239₂,241₁,241₂) of the elongated band, the first and second shaped leading edges (235',237') formed as edges of the first and second light obstructing band sections defining one side of the first and second respective light transmitting band sections which face one another and interrupt the light beam in near the same plane as the first and second light obstructing band sections are moved in parallel with respect to one another and the opening. A motor drive assembly supported by the housing engages and provide rotational driving force to the end loop of the second light transmitting section. A position sensor provides a position feedback signal to the illumination control system for providing servo regulation of the positioning of the aperture defining leading edges of the band.

Abstract: An image carrier of an organic photosensitive material containing a charge-generating agent and a charge-transporting agent, and a transfer roller using an electrically conducting polyurethane rubber composition which is so cured as to exhibit a rubber hardness of higher than 50° (JIS A), are disposed being spaced apart maintaining a small gap which is greater than the thickness of the transfer material enabling the toner to be transferred onto the transfer material. This makes it possible to prevent the occurrence of image defects such as white spots and the like, to form transferred image favorably and stably over an extended period of time maintaining a high density without fogging and consuming a small transfer current.

Abstract: The output signal of a limiter stage (2) is fed to a detection stage (5) which is supplied with current, whereby the current supply (3) and hence the output signal of the detection stage are dependent on the supply voltage (13). An arrangement (4) for compensation of the fluctuations in the current supply forms the difference between a first early dependent current and a second, less early dependent current, multiplies this with a factor and adds it to the output current from the current supply. Two couples current sources can be used to provide the first early dependent current and the second, less early dependent current.

Abstract: In a color printer, in order to perform a high-speed print operation and ensure a refresh operation and the like of an image memory, print images which correspond to a plurality of printheads, and are bitmapped and stored in a bitmap RAM in units of colors are consecutively read out and DMA-transferred by 16 bits at a time when a read operation is designated. After this DMA operation, the refresh operation of the bitmap RAM or access to the RAM is permitted. The printer includes the same number of latch circuits as that of printheads (e.g., four). Each latch circuit stores a data transfer start address (TOPA) and a data transfer end address (ENDA) in the bitmap RAM. With this arrangement, image data can be efficiently read out. If the capacity of the bitmap RAM is small, an upper address bit in the bitmap RAM is shifted to switch discontinuous addresses to continuous addresses on the bitmap memory side. If an optional memory is implemented, the normal addressing is restored to flexibly cope with a change in the capacity of the image memory.

Abstract: A closed alignment sleeve has three lands equally 
spaced on the inside surface of the sleeve. When a 
ferrule is inserted into the sleeve, the interference at 
the three lands causes the walls of the sleeve to bend to 
accommodate the ferrule. In this manner, the closed 
alignment sleeve with three lands has a stiffness attained 
by the mechanism normally associated with the open sleeve. 
The closed alignment sleeve is symmetrical and the three 
lands act to center the ferrule within the sleeve. The 
sleeve is formed from a thermoplastic which is much less 
expensive and much more compliant than conventional 
ceramic and which allows the sleeve to deform to the size 
of the ferrule. Further, the envelope required to contain 
the sleeve is small enough to fit within a variety of 
optical connectors, including the SC connector. In a 
second embodiment, a sleeve may be formed by deforming a 
metallic tube to have three equally spaced lobes separated 
by essentially straight sides. The sides deform outwardly 
to accept an inserted ferrule and center the ferrule 
within the sleeve. The sleeve may additionally have cut-outs 
for decoupling deformation at one end of the sleeve 
from deformation at the other end of the sleeve.

Abstract: An isolated, high impedance, DC current source is provided from a readily available AC type source. The DC current source includes an isolating transformer which receives the AC source signal and provides an isolated AC voltage signal therefrom, a resonant low pass filter which is tuned to the frequency of the AC type source and which takes the AC isolated voltage signal and generates therefrom an AC current source signal, and a rectifier which rectifies the AC current source signal to provide a DC current source signal. A voltage limiting clamp is preferably coupled to the rectifier in order to limit the output voltage to a desired level. The resonant low pass filter is preferably comprised of two substantially equally valued inductors coupled to respective poles of the secondary winding of the isolating transformer, and a capacitor which is coupled to both of the inductors. In one embodiment, the AC type source is a 5V CMOS clock signal, and the output current source generates a sealing current of between 4 and 10 milliamps for telecommunications equipment. In another embodiment, the AC type source is chosen for a desired voltage and frequency, and a plurality of DC current source circuits are coupled to the AC type source in order to distribute power to repeaters or other remote equipment.

Abstract: A method for generating, in a switching power supply, an output voltage from an input voltage (302). The method includes the step of closing a switch (304) in the switching power supply to permit current from the input source to flow through the inductor (310) and the capacitor (312) of the switching power supply, thereby building up an inductor current (I LX ) through the inductor (310) and increasing the output voltage across the capacitor (312). If a combination of the output voltage and inductor current (I LX ) is satisfactory at the start of an off-time of the oscillator signal (400), the method opens the switch (304). If a combination of the output voltage and inductor current (I LX ) is unsatisfactory at the start of an off-time of the oscillator signal (400), the inventive method preferably keeps the switch (304) closed past the off-time of the oscillator signal (400) to continue building up the inductor current (I LX ) through the inductor (310) and increasing the output voltage across the capacitor (312).

Abstract: Dispositifs de sécurité difficiles à reproduire et comprenant une configuration de métallisation en écran quadrillé. Cette configuration peut être déposée au-dessus d'un hologramme ou d'un réseau de diffraction constitué en tant que configuration de relief de surface sur un substrat, afin d'obtenir un dispositif de sécurité semi-transparent et visuellement identifiable. De plus, la configuration de métallisation peut comporter des structures résonantes dans lesquelles sont codées des informations concernant le dispositif de sécurité. Dans quelques modes de réalisation de ces dispositifs de sécurité, la configuration de métallisation est placée de façon à correspondre exactement à l'hologramme ou au réseau de diffraction sous-jacents. On fabrique ces dispositifs de sécurité au moyen de procédés consistant à imprimer une configuration à l'huile sur le substrat. Les zones sur lesquelles l'huile est déposée ne reçoivent pas de métal pendant une étape de métallisation. Etant donné que ces procédés n'utilisent pas de produits corrosifs, il est possible de réaliser des configurations de métallisation comprenant des caractéristiques qui piégeraient et conserveraient des produits corrosifs dans le cas contraire.
